Man Says He Sold UCLA’s Cadavers

A man has admitted to cutting up and selling the parts of at least 800 cadavers used in UCLA’s research department to large medical research firms.

Over a six year period Ernest Nelson went to the university’s body freezer and hacked off body parts to sell with his trusty handsaw. He collected “knees, hands, torsos and other body parts needed by his corporate clients, which he said numbered between 80 and 100.” Ugh!

After admitting to the actually doing he claims, “It was not done in secret.” He also said cryptically, upon further investigation, “my name will be cleared.”

Regardless of that, selling body parts is pretty low. Lower I think even than working in Internet sportsbetting. 😉
